The wildfire burned 130 acres near the 20800 block of Gardenias Street in Good Hope, about 4 miles away from Perris. Initially, firefighters did not issue warnings, but a wind shift forced authorities to evacuate seven zones near the fire: 
Cal Fire issued warnings for zones LSN-1407 and RVC-1408. The evacuation zone stretched from South of San Jacinto Avenue/Santa Rosa Mine Road, West of W. 4th Street/Highway 74, East of La Barranca/El Nido Road and North of Eucalyptus Avenue.
